Re(2): Fuel filter intervals on Audi 4000

Bob:

That metal cylinder near the fuel pump *is* a pressure accumulator.  
Since there is a checking procedure in the FI manual I would imagine 
that it *does* fail on occasion, but is not a regular maintenance item.  
There is another metal cylinder in the fuel line, usually under the 
hood (except on my ur-Q) that is the fuel filter.  Until the recent 
posting about the small inline filter, the only other filter I was 
aware of was the screen in the tank.
